ANSWER:Part (a)
Step 1 of 5:
The velocity vs time graph is given. We are going to construct the acceleration vs time graph for the corresponding v-t graph. The acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. The velocity of the graph is not the same throughout. It varies at each point. The acceleration is expressed as
